Stage 2 Fire Restrictions Begin Friday, June 29 on the White River National Forest June 29, 2018 Media Contacts: Scott Fitzwilliams, Forest Supervisor, (970) 945-3200 Jamie Casterton, Acting Public Affairs Specialist, (970) 945-3237 Stage 2 Fire restrictions begin Friday, June 29 on the White River National Forest Glenwood Springs, Colo. - Stage 2 fire restrictions begin at 8:00 a.m. Friday, June 29 for the entire White River National Forest. This order supersedes previous Stage 1 fire restrictions and is being imposed due to continuing high to extreme fire hazard conditions. Also effective today, Bureau of Land Management administered lands in Eagle, Garfield, Pitkin and Summit counties are under Stage 2 fire restrictions. Fire managers base decisions about fire restrictions on specific moisture measurements in vegetation and other risk factors such as predicted weather and amount of current fire activity. The White River National Forest will be enforcing the following temporary restrictions: • Building, maintaining, attending or using a fire or campfire, charcoal grill, coal, wood burning stove or sheepherders stove, including in developed camp and picnic grounds. Devices with shut-off valves using pressurized liquid or gas are exempted; • Smoking, except within an enclosed vehicle, trailer, or building; • Using an explosive including but not limited to fuses or blasting caps, fireworks, rockets, exploding targets and tracers or incendiary ammunition; • Operating a chainsaw without an approved spark arrestor, and without a chemical pressurized fire extinguisher and a round-point shovel with an overall length of at least 35 inches that is readily available for use; • Welding, or operating an acetylene or other torch with open flame except with a current permit, contract or letter of authorization; • Use of a motor vehicles off National Forest System roads, except when parking in an area devoid of vegetation within 10 feet of the roadway, and except for parking overnight in developed campgrounds and at trailheads. Fireworks are always prohibited on BLM, National Forest and National Park Service lands. “We are urging people to use extreme caution out there and be diligent in preventing any fires on the forest during the upcoming 4th of July holiday week.” said Scott Fitzwilliams, Forest Supervisor for the White River National Forest. “Conditions are extremely dry and the weather outlook shows continued hot, dry windy conditions to come. We appreciate the public’s cooperation as we all work together to prevent human-caused wildfires. ” Fire restrictions on these lands will be in place until further notice. Those found responsible for starting wildfires will also face restitution costs of suppressing the fire.

  • APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM April 2020 by David Evans and Associates
    APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM Environmental Assessment and Section 4(f) Evaluation APPENDIX A20 CUMULATIVE IMPACTS TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM April 2020 By David Evans and Associates INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND The I-70 West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project is located in Eagle and Summit Counties, with the eastern terminus just east of the Vail Pass Rest Area and the western terminus in the Town of Vail. The project study limits include eastbound (EB) and westbound (WB) I-70 from mile post (MP) 179.5 to MP 191.5. The project location and approximate study area are shown in Figure 1 . As part of the initial National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis, a Tier 1 Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the I-70 Mountain Corridor (C-470 to Glenwood Springs) was completed in 2011. This EIS, the I-70 Mountain Corridor Programmatic Final Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS), recommended the addition of auxiliary lanes EB and WB on the west side of Vail Pass from MP 180 to MP 190 as part of the Preferred Alternative’s Minimum Program of Improvements. The PEIS also identified the potential for an elevated Advanced Guideway System (AGS) for transit along the I-70 corridor, including the West Vail Pass project corridor. A follow-up AGS Feasibility Study in 2014 analyzed potential alignments and costs for an AGS system and determined there were three feasible alignments for future AGS. While AGS is not part of the West Vail Pass Auxiliary Lanes project, the AGS Feasibility Study was used to ensure the project did not preclude the favored alignment of the three, which would be partially within CDOT right-of-way (ROW).

  • COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail
    CONTINENTAL DIVIDE NATIONAL SCENIC TRAIL DAY & OVERNIGHT HIKES: COLORADO CONTINENTAL DIVIDE TRAIL COALITION VISIT COLORADO! Day & Overnight Hikes on the Continental Divide Trail THE CENTENNIAL STATE The Colorado Rockies are the quintessential CDT experience! The CDT traverses 800 miles of these majestic and challenging peaks dotted with abandoned homesteads and ghost towns, and crosses the ancestral lands of the Ute, Eastern Shoshone, and Cheyenne peoples. The CDT winds through some of Colorado’s most incredible landscapes: the spectacular alpine tundra of the South San Juan, Weminuche, and La Garita Wildernesses where the CDT remains at or above 11,000 feet for nearly 70 miles; remnants of the late 1800’s ghost town of Hancock that served the Alpine Tunnel; the awe-inspiring Collegiate Peaks near Leadville, the highest incorporated city in America; geologic oddities like The Window, Knife Edge, and Devil’s Thumb; the towering 14,270 foot Grays Peak – the highest point on the CDT; Rocky Mountain National Park with its rugged snow-capped skyline; the remote Never Summer Wilderness; and the broad valleys and numerous glacial lakes and cirques of the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. You might also encounter moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, marmots, and pika on the CDT in Colorado. In this guide, you’ll find Colorado’s best day and overnight hikes on the CDT, organized south to north. ELEVATION: The average elevation of the CDT in Colorado is 10,978 ft, and all of the hikes listed in this guide begin at elevations above 8,000 ft. Remember to bring plenty of water, sun protection, and extra food, and know that a hike at elevation will likely be more challenging than the same distance hike at sea level.
